Lila Downs y Cinco de Mayo

I am a few days late, but in honor of Cinco de Mayo, I am posting a song by one of my current Mexican favorites, Lila Downs. Enjoy!

Mother's Day & Armpit Hair

Happy Mother's Day everyone!

And since it is Mother’s Day, I thought I would link to a piece at Indymedia Santa Cruz titled “Ode to my Armpit Hair”. Who said there is no deep thought on the left anymore? Cause, you know, cutting armpit hair is like, so patriarchal… and stuff.
